EHAM, consistent +45/50 knts, occn +70knt gust
Flying baggage, rolling bag carts, wobbling catering trucks, moving aircraft for INS/IRS allignment problems, too much wind up the tailpipes, can't shut doors, yes I would agree rather sporting. I am one who is glad to be on the ground today

Parody of the film Twister,, "hey, we got baggage going past the window" So anyone with a small black softsided travel tow-along, with a red ribbon round the handle is missing their bag, it headed off towards the KLM cargo centre at around 1130 :-)

Even the birds have given up trying to fly, I wouldn't even start to guess the ground speed of the downwind pigeon......
